I like to use Confluence Calendars to keep track of team PTO as well as organizational deadlines, events, holidays, etc.  It would be very handy to view this information in a team Jira Dashboard.  I feel like a dedicated Gadget just for Confluence Calendars would be the best solution as you could limit the functionality (think of it like a "read-only" version of a Calendar, but with a click-through to jump to Confluence for more detail and functionality) while still providing the value of a Dashboard to provide visibility into upcoming items, etc.

Since the Issues Calendar doe not display the epic the issue type is assigned to, my team is finding it very tedious to have to click in to the issue to find out what deliverable each calendar item is associated to. my solve was building a confluence page with a JQL filter displaying the epic and the key to match them with the calendar displayed below. Once i built that page i tried to integrate it into the team dashboard with the confluence page embedded and got the error described above. While i realize there is multiple ways to configure different gadgets on the dashboard to get this result, it would be far more efficient to make 1 gadget to rule them all.

I'm trying to create a dashboard to prep a tightly interdependent set of teams' releases. I have a Confluence page that I created to show day / week / and month views of the preparation activities on a calendar for easy visualization of the work. I want to add this page to a Jira dashboard that has a dataplane report with all the tagged fix versions. But since the teams calendar is not compatible with the Jira/Confluence page gadget, it's much less useful to us. I vote to increase this fix' priority

Let's be honest, this isn't a feature suggestion, this is a bug. You offer a functionality (ie. putting a Confluence page in JIRA) but the moment you do, you're met with an error. That's a bug by nature.

We are trying to integrate the confluence team calendar in Jira project dashboard view . Error in displaying the calendar.

The Team Calendar in Confluence shows Jira cards much better than the Jira Issues Calendar gadget. But when using the Confluence Page gadget in Jira it throws an exception as noted in the description above. Seems more like a bug in the Confluence Page gadget. So my vote is that this is a Bug in the current gadget and not a Suggestion.

In our project channels we track products within an issue workflow. Those issues then are a part of Epics that are essentially our project container. Using the Team Calendars within our Jira instance helps to manage the overall Epic and resource allocation. Visually it helps PMs and Managers to understand workload and would allow a greater reporting capability to see utilization.

I'd like to add that our Confluence 5.8.10 instance crashed twice due to someone adding this gadget with a Team Calendar to their Jira dashboard.

After the gadget was removed, the instability disappeared.

Note that we are also affected by CONF-38232 and TEAMCAL-2633, so instances having the correct datatypes may not see such severe effects.
